You lift me up and throw me down
You say it's much too easy
That I'll never come around
I'm going under
Won't you let me get away?
'Cause all you do
Is kick me when I'm down
So tell me I'm
Nothing, to you
I'm not worth your time
This temptation's got
Me wanting so much more, so divine
My throat's gone sore
From singing your praise
But when I stare into your eyes
You pull the wool over mine
So you can
Twist, the, knife, some more
You hang me like a puppet
You know I love it
So tell me anything at all
Can't you see
My heart's on the floor?
There's no voice of reason
I'm just begging you for more
But still you
Drag, my, name, through, the mud
Make like I'm your marionette
Like you're not staining my blood
I tried to beg for forgiveness
I shouted and called
But now I'm lying at your feet
And I can only hear
You saying that you'll
Tie me up and tie me tight
Leave me in the dark
It's not that hard
Oh you don't know what it's like
When I'm so drawn to the rhythm
Of your taste with no soul
I keep on counting the days
While nothing changes at all
So won't you
Twist, the, knife, some more
You hang me like a puppet
You know I love it
So tell me anything at all
Can't you see my heart's on the floor?
There's no voice of reason
I'm just begging you for more
Why don't you twist
The, knife, some more
You hang me like a puppet
You know I love it
So tell me anything at all
Can't you see my heart's on the floor?
There's no voice of reason
I'm just begging you for more
So tell me I'm
Nothing, to you, a fly on the wall
I put my heart on my sleeve
But you're just praying for my downfall
Your validation is music to my ears
It's so few and far between
But I just can't get enough
So won't you
Twist, the, knife, some more
You hang me like a puppet
You know I love it
So tell me anything at all
Can't you see my heart's on the floor?
What's the point in quitting
Now I'm begging you for more?
Why don't you
